As If It Had Always Been
With her eyes closed
She looked
And felt

How he
Embraced her
Tightly

Breathed his skin
Enjoyed the throaty sound
Succumbed to his animalistic scent

Nestled on silky blooms
The dark rose
Had no thorns

Spun mist
Sweet and spicy
Slow circles

Dripped fine resin
From dull wood
On peach-soft
Warm skin

Heard the earth stop
Turning

Eyes in twilight
Lost in each other
Time
Without meaning

And she heard
Him say
I have waited forever
For you

Terrible! My nightmare. Smells like a litter box with such strong flowers that I get a migraine.

This unfortunately won't be poetry,
but I can't stand so much sweet
civet-pee-lily of the valley,
it really makes me uneasy.
